MEMORIAL DAY PARADE (Marching Band) - MONDAY 5/30
We hope you can join us for the final band performance of the school year as our marching band performs in the Memorial Day parade in Howell.
- Report time for students is 8:45 A.M. - TIME CHANGE from original blog post!!! and the parade starts at 10 a.m. at the library. The parade ends with a ceremony at Thompson Lake Cemetery. Students will be bussed to the parade and back to the high school - allow some time for your student to turn in their marching band uniform after the parade.
- Temperatures are going to be in the upper 80's on Monday. With the student's safety in mind, we will NOT be wearing our formal marching band uniforms. Students need to wear their marching band tshirt, khaki shorts, black shoes and black socks.
- IF you signed up to help with uniforms, thank you but, we will not need help with that.
- HELP NEEDED FOR PARADE AND PICNIC!
We will need help with loading the trailer, bus chaperones and walkers, and setting up and running the picnic. Trailer loader should be available to ride with Mr. Miller and the trailer to help unload equipment. Bus chaperones need to be available to walk in the parade with the band and bring backpacks with cold water bottles, sunscreen, and sugar snacks for any low blood sugar issues. Any student with special medical needs may need a parent to carry their meds. At least one parent to have a first aid kit. Our band will perform at the Cemetery Ceremony and then will proceed back to the band room to change before heading to the picnic.
If you have any questions, please text Jamie at 248-792-1184.
